Shooting at a car to stop a shoplifter is not justified. Even if no one was harmed, let alone shooting to death a 1 year-old baby.

JUST IN: The police shooting that killed 1-year-old Kohen Wiley as he sat in his mother’s lap in a Walmart parking lot in Senatobia, Miss., in June “was justified,” Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch’s office said on Monday. Her office will not charge the white officer who shot the child.

“Oh, you need your precious Chatbot to help you be creative? These freaks made a giant, tactile troll by hand that has taken up residence as my new sleep paralysis demon, born of their own sick minds.” The best review I’ve ever received. 😭🤌🏼

I have yet to see, at least in this election cycle, Republicans interrogated this much over the daily comments and posts from Elon Musk, the richest man on the planet and one of the GOP’s biggest backers. The obsession over Hasan Piker is absurd and terrible journalism.

Raskin after Kristen Welker plays him clips of controversial Hasan Piker comments and asks him to react to them: "I think all of that is an irrelevant distraction"

The entire basis of the transition to digital distribution is that people can be sure that they will have permanent access to the things they have purchased. Publishers challenge this implicit agreement at their peril. If people stop trusting you will honor their purchases the whole model collapses.

As a lifelong PlayStation fan, it's time to burn it all to the ground. No more PlayStation purchases, no more support for the company. Let them go under as an example to the rest.

Sony has responded to a digital games lawsuit by arguing that players don't actually own the games they buy Its lawyers say they are licensed rather than sold

I would 100% support a law that says if any digital platform removes your access to media you paid for then they are required to refund you the entirety of the original purchase price. That would solve this whole thing in a hurry.

Dude found $30 on the ground in Albany, GA and it's being reported by a zombie "local news" affiliate in Cincinnati, OH (700 miles away). Oh and the original citation is to a facebook post from the Albany, GA police dept which says he returned the money. 🤔

If you can't come out right now, please don't hate yourself. One day, the meaning of labels will disappear. Please love yourself as you are. The one who can cherish yourself the most is yourself. Because that is your strength and beauty. Chiitan loves you

Despite all the accusations of crimes and cover-ups, the Trump admin has never actually prosecuted or jailed anyone. The supposed stolen 2020 election, Jan 6 deep state, Dr Fauci, etc. All of its is just theater for the base, revving them up. In the end, will undermine faith in gov and institutions.

It is such a novelty to watch a politician *do things* to help his constituents instead of wasting the day posting AI garbage and talking smack about the opposition.

NEWS: NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani unveiled a 23-point “Rental Ripoff Report” aimed at cracking down on negligent landlords, recognizing tenant unions, requiring disclosure of AI-altered rental listings, and strengthening enforcement against hazardous housing conditions like mold, pests, and leaks.

in the process of swapping my main site from Wix to Carrd bc what the heck is this pardon if the main jocat site gets funky or stops working for a couple months while I go through the process of moving things over to carrd

The ICC needs an enforcement mechanism. No country should be able to just ignore the ICC the way the US does. No country should be able to threaten the ICC the way the US does. The fact that the global community just allows this behavior is lunacy.
